Sinopse

Learning Through Practice argues that actively engaging with material through hands-on practice and experiential learning is crucial for effective knowledge acquisition and long-term memory retention. The book explores the cognitive and educational psychology behind why "doing" solidifies understanding more effectively than passive methods. Did you know that kinesthetic learning, which involves physical activity, can significantly enhance memory encoding? Or that immediate application of knowledge boosts motivation and strengthens neural pathways? The book uniquely integrates theoretical insights from psychology and education, providing educators with a framework for incorporating experiential learning into classrooms with practical strategies and examples.

Beginning with foundational concepts like active recall and embodied cognition, it progresses through the psychological basis of learning by doing, evaluations of various experiential learning models, and practical applications across educational settings. This approach emphasizes active participation over traditional rote memorization, a vital shift considering the need for adaptability in today's world.

The book's exploration of active learning highlights its impact on cognitive development, memory retention, and curriculum development. By examining empirical studies and case studies, Learning Through Practice offers a guide for educators and learners alike to implement active learning strategies and educational techniques. Ultimately, it advocates for a move towards educational models that prioritize engagement and hands-on practice.

The Company That Solved...

John Torinus Jr.

Even with new health-care policies, it's clear that health-care costs will continue to rise dramatically. While individuals may get better coverage, businesses will have the same problem they've had for the last four decades. Health care, one of corporate America's largest expenses, is growing at double-digit rates, and nothing done in Washington will change that. 
 
 
 
But one company set out to tame the beast of rising health-care costs. Serigraph, Inc., a Wisconsin-based manufacturer of decorative parts, and its chairman, John Torinus, did what Washington can't or won't do: reduce cost increases to less than two percent while improving the quality of health care for its employees. The implications for corporate America are staggering—the opportunity for genuine reform in an expense category that has been spiraling out of control. 
 
 
 
The Company That Solved Health Care describes the fascinating details of Serigraph's program and shows how any company can achieve similar results. This book is a must-listen for any manager responsible for his or her company's health-care expenses, any academic or thinker involved in the health-care debate, and anyone who wants to better understand why health-care costs have been rising and what can be done to achieve price stability while improving patient care.

Finding Endurance - Shackleton...

Darrel Bristow-Bovey

'Engaging, absorbing and crammed with marvellous stories, Finding Endurance is a tale about exploring the cold, told with much warmth.' MICK HERRON

'Beautiful, thrilling, heroic and kind, a ripping yarn' CLAIRE ROBERTSON, AUTHOR OF THE SPIRAL HOUSE

'Tender, heartfelt and lyrical' PETINA GAPPAH, AUTHOR OF OUT OF DARKNESS, SHINING LIGHT

'An exhilarating read' HENRIETTA ROSE-INNES, AUTHOR OF GREEN LION

Since the discovery of the wreck of Ernest Shackleton's ship Endurance on the bed of the Antarctic ocean, the world has been enthralled anew by one of the greatest stories of all time.

Acclaimed South African writer Darrel Bristow-Bovey, himself a Shackleton aficionado, revisits this dramatic event, which managed to sweep the tide of anger and rancour off the timelines and front pages of the world.

He asks how so many ordinary people, who don't know a nunatak from a barquentine, were so moved at the finding of a small wooden ship once sailed by a half-forgotten Irishman? In re-examining the story and its players, he presents new details and a new understanding of the courage and hardship of the Endurance voyage, and reminds us of how extraordinary humans can be. Not all is lost, and what has been lost can be regained: the ocean has given us something back.

What's more, we are reminded that miracles still happen: human miracles, performed by flawed people in helpless situations.
